Off hand I'd suggest pushing the yoke forward to use decent to prevent stall, because the stall can happen real fast in that attitude, so be prepared. ((Don't freeze like a deer in head lights)). Glide back to the runway or have knowledge of a safe alternative and use it. Ken Wow, Ken, even *I* know this is idiotic. My thoughts a Given no good alternative aside from the runway, know the x-wind at T-O, do max ascent into the wind as is normal, then if the engine quit's (do radio) do a descending gentle 20 into the x-wind, and come back and set the ship down. I think the key is max ascent rate, that's insurance. Ken Ken, the simple geometries don't work. Regardless of aircraft characteristics. Are you willing to bet your life on these false assumptions? -- Remove numbers for gmail and for God's sake it ain't "gee" either! No worries, I don't believe anyone has ever been injured or killed using M S Flight Simulator ![]() Not true. There are strong rumours that the personality known as Anthony A....i died as a results of playing it too much in Paris. His alter ego, Mxmaniac was injured by trying to simulate a "sexy manouver". It turned out that a joy stick did not live up to his expectations. Seeing as how it;s Anthony, he prolly has a 16 ton weight suspended over his chair in case he crashes. Bertie |
